So, series 2-4 reruns are airing on Disney XD in the US.....why?

I mean, no offense to Disney, but wouldn't Sarah Jane Adventures (Which only aired its first series on Syfy) or K-9 (which only aired as a one day marathon of every episode on Syfy) be better choices for a kids network? I'm not saying that Doctor Who isn't kid-friendly, but..i don't know. It just doesn't seem right for some reason.

Also, the episode selection seems a bit strange. Why skip Nine? Why skip The Christmas Invasion? Why skip the Tenth Doctor Specials?

Feel free to discuss this development. I gotta go to bed.

Yet again, Who ends up on a channel my #@#$% cable company thinks I should be paying extra for.

45 bucks a month, and I have sports channels out the wazoo. I miss the days when PBS ran classic DW every weekend.

Modern DW is "hip" right now, (my local drugstore is carrying the toys) and Disney is no doubt testing the waters to see if it brings in an audience. They might perceive SJA and the K9 series as requiring background knowledge of Whovian lore to jump into.

I noticed BBC America skipped #9 completely with the holiday marathons I was able to see.
